Ok after a turbo installation, I am having problems with spark. Cam and crank sensors are working, grounds are on the coil pack. Everything is hooked up, except for one plug. Its a gray plug that is two prong and close to the throttle body. I had marked it coolant temp sensor, but its not. What else do you it could be guys? No codes thrown. Has fuel pressure, so its not the safety switch.
Thanks in advance

could be for the IAC, or maybe you got the coolant and the IAC hooked up backwards, check those, and the fuses to see if all in good shape

It would help if you identified your car.
We have no clue as to year and engine, so can't look it up.

There are few reasons to not get powet TO the coil.
1) bad ground on interior fuse panel
2) bad ground on engine compartment fuse panel
3) short in the wire
4) blown 20amp fuse in engine compartment fuse panel. I forget which number it is, but it is labeled ignition DRL and i believe its the only 20amp in there.
5) bad ignition relay.
checks
1) interior lights? if yes, grounded
2) turning over? if yes, grounded
3) short in the wire... multimeter test from inline harness connector to power (purple/black) wire... (not likely unless you have a 95-97 with known to be bad harness
4) this is the most likely.. check this before ANYTHING
5) check power at the ignition relay in the interior fuse panel for power before and after with a multimeter.
good luck

Only thing not done so far according to what you have said is the power to the interior relay...I think that was R4 but i could be wrong...I did however, pull it out and shake it...didnt make much noise..a very minute rattle..didnt seem the prob..checked all fuses and all were good, also checked the power to the plug that plugs into the coil...and the furthest right wire (green) was reading 0.00 and my friends was reading 11.11
Its weird b/c the car ran fine 3 months ago...and now that we are ready to start it (been down for 3months for turbo) it wont spark whatsoever.
Thank you guys for any or all help given...hopefully we can get some more help =)

the power wire to the coil i believe is purple... check if there is a purple wire and test continuity there. The wire should be the same color (different stripe color though) as the power wire to the radio frequency capacitor mounted on the other side of the coil.
